Re: Any good Perl Editors for Linux?

It seems like the majority of programmers who use Linux pick one of two editors: emacs or vim. Both have their pros and cons, but the bottom line is you have to invest time to learn how to use them. I prefer vim, but you simply can't learn vim in 2 hours (it took me about 2 or 3 months to reach a fairly proficient/productive level with vim).

If you plan on doing more research into vi, you might find this node of use: .vimrc for perl programmers.

It seems like the majority of programmers who use Linux pick one of two editors: emacs or vim. OTOH I use jed: a lightweight emacs clone which comes with CUA-like keybinding out of the box - to activate them is just a matter of uncommenting a line in `~/.jedrc`; and they're deeply etched in my cortex...
